Honors College students have several opportunities to connect with our Honors College Graduate Mentors, a cohort of full-time doctoral students representing a range of academic disciplines. Honors College Graduate Mentors provide mentorship within their academic area of expertise regarding topics such as writing personal statements for graduate school applications, how to get involved in research, coaching on presenting academic research, and more. Graduate Mentors are available through office hours as well as signature events, giving Honors College undergraduates a rich resource and support network within their academic disciplines.
